White Sox activated RHP Jake Petricka from the 60-day disabled list.

Petricka was shut down in early May with a right hip impingement and never made it back. He owns a cool 3.31 ERA in 152 1/3 career innings at the major league level, but the 28-year-old right-hander will probably have to battle for a bullpen spot next spring in White Sox camp after what was basically a lost 2016.

Petricka is done for the year with a hip injury. He landed on the 15-day disabled list in early May. Jul 6 - 2:10 PM

Jake Petricka will miss the remainder of the 2016 season due to a labrum injury.

Petricka initially hit the disabled list at the beginning of May. It has been the disabled list stint from Hades. He was initially expected to miss the minimum, but soreness in his right hip lingered and now it has become clear that he will not be able to return to the major league mound. Surgery is a possibility, though it is not yet known if Petricka will be taking that path. Jun 10 - 5:58 PM

White Sox manager Robin Ventura said Saturday that Jake Petricka is still battling soreness in his right hip.

The Sox had hoped when Petricka was placed on the disabled list that he'd only require a minimum disabled list stint, but the reliever has already missed two weeks and he's still sore. It's unclear when Petricka might be ready to resume a throwing program. May 22 - 9:03 AM

We knew it would take quite a haul for the White Sox to give up three years of one of the best pitchers in the game, and they managed to find it from Boston. Moncada, the centerpiece of the deal, is one of the top position prospects in all of baseball. He turns 22 in May and batted .294/.407/.511 with 15 homers and 45 stolen bases over 106 games last season between High-A and Double-A. Moncada struggled during his first exposure to the majors, but that wasn’t unexpected given his age and inexperience against advanced pitching. He should get a shot with the big club at some point in 2017, likely at second base. There’s still fantasy mega-stud potential here.
